Cluj has won three straight and can also take confidence from a colossal 60-98 victory over the Italian team earlier this season, when Karel Guzman’s double-double of 14 points and 12 rebounds helped make the difference. Andrejs Grazulis had 15 points and 8 boards in that game, and his showdown with Guzman will be a highlight again this week.
Mihai Silvasan, Cluj coach
"Like any other game in the EuroCup, it will be difficult. We will play against an unpredictable team. They can have a bad game, as was the case against us, or they can play amazing, as was the case against Gran Canaria. Trento is a talented team, but our objective is to play well and win this game."
Patrick Richard, Cluj guard
"We are taking it one game at a time. We are excited to be back in front of our fans. It is the last regular season home game and we have to continue to fight. I am always here for the team, it comes in different forms. I will do my best to play well. Whatever my team needs, I am willing to do it. We feel like the sky is the limit and we are not satisfied with the third place in the group."
